    exploration of the research, preservation, editing, and pedagogical uses of
    electronic texts and images in the humanities. The course will center around

    we shall also create an Encoded Archival Description guide. Topics include:
    SGML tagging and conversion; using the Text Encoding Initiative Guidelines; the
    form and implications of XML; publishing on the World Wide Web; and the
    management and use of online texts. For details about last years version of
    this course, see <http://etext.lib.virginia.edu/rbs/99>. Some experience with
